' . r ' Gasoline, Oils, Tires arid a full line of Accessories LADIES REST ROOM Three strong reasons urge you to buy a Ford can First, because of its record of satisfactory service to more tfian fifteen hundred thousand owners; Second, because of the reliability of the Company which makes it; Third, be- eause of its large radiator and enclosed fan, streamline hood, crown fenders front and rear, black finish, nickel trimmings, it is most attractive in appear ance. To these must be added its wonderful economy in operation and main tenance about two cents a mile; likewise the fact that by reason of its mo plicity in construction anyone can operate and care for it. Nine thousand Ford agents make the Ford service as universal as the car. Beaverton and Hillsboro T read in the hook of Erele- siaatea that to everything then is a season and a time. "A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance. But if there waa ever a time under the sun'', when dancing and revelry was. out of plsce, it surely the present time. With the world bleeding to death and peoples' hearts break- ing with sorrow over the loss of loved ones, while . all over the country dances and other frolics are being held ostensibly from a patriotic motive to raiae money for the Red Cross, when sny sens ible person knows that the real motive is snything but that Peo ple who must dance, do not hesi tate to take advantage of a dying world to popularize their revelry. It is like daneiug on the graves of our dead. One of the saddest de velopments at these days of disas ter is the way in which many peo ple are commercializing their pa triotism. Moving picture theaters are trying to make gain out of the enthusiasm for the noble work of. the Red Crass, r The Bed Cross is; to get part si the profita.ef .ev great man enterprises, when the real object is to line their own pockets.' ' - - r - -'-- What a contrast m the attitude of the nations of the world and their rulers with that of our be- loved Lincoln .during the. Civil War, when he said, "It ia the doty of nations, as well aa individuals, to own their dependence upon God to confess their sins in hum ble sorrow with the hope that gen uine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures end proven by all history that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord." Then he goea on to say: "We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven, but we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand ; that preserved us In peace and i prosperity. We have vainly im- agined in the deceitfulness of our : heart that all these blessings; were produced by some superior i wisdom snd virtue of our own, j and we have become too proud to pray to the God that made us. It behooves us, then, to humble our-j selves before the offended power j to confess our national sins snd to pray for clemency and forgive ness." ., '4 The great need of America, as well aa England and France, and' every . ether nation today ia not more money or larger prepared-1 nesa for war, but genuine repent- anee before God. -- The only use the average man has for God is not to worship Him j and obey Him, but to makes con-! venieuce of Him, to look to Hun ! to help him out of hia troubles and to fight. hie-bsttles for him; to cry "Qod nut una," then proceed to violate every law of God and common decency. Remember the words of the Psalmist, "The wicked shall be turned into hell and all the na-i tiona that forget God." I That ia exactly what is occur-1 ring in Europe today and will in America sooner or later, no mat-' ter how the present war termin-1 ates, unless she repents. i WILLIAM L.
